'EVERYONE had told my manager not to hire this guy': 20+ Office employees who got fired for doing their jobs badly

Every workplace has that one firing story that's so outrageous that it's told in a hushed voice, like you're sharing scary tales around the campfire. Oftentimes, the fired employee has been a thorn in the boss's side for quite a while. When they get fired, they flip their lid, letting out all of that pent-up frustration. 

A lot of workplaces do their firings in the early morning before the other employees come in to avoid situations like that. But sometimes, firing an employee during the workday can't be helped. One workplace practice that stands out in these stories is the place that revokes their worker's entry badges when they're laid off. So they arrive in the morning and try to enter the building, only to realize that they can't! Is it a badge problem, or have they been fired in the clunkiest way possible? Well, they have to wait for their boss to come tell them before finding out. 

You can check out a bunch of interesting firing stories down below. Then, read about the 17-year-old country club worker who got back at their bad boss, sharing that, "I quit on the busiest day of the year."
